Privacy Policy
How Main Street Ingredients handles the small amount of information this site collects.
Who we are
Main Street Ingredients is a recipe blog published at mainstreetingredients.com. You can reach us at [email protected].
What we collect
We collect only what a recipe blog needs: the email address you type into a subscribe or contact form, the message you send with it, and anonymous traffic statistics such as pages viewed and approximate country.
- Your email address and any name or message you submit
- Anonymous page-view and referral data
- Cookies that remember your form preferences and consent choices
What we do not collect
We do not ask for payment details, government identifiers or anything sensitive. We do not buy email lists and we do not sell or rent your address to anybody.
How we use it
- To send the recipe letter you asked for, and nothing else
- To answer a question you sent us
- To understand which recipes are useful so we write more of them
Cookies
The site sets functional cookies for forms and, if you accept them, analytics cookies. You can clear or block cookies in your browser at any time; the recipes stay readable.
Third parties
We use a caching layer and a privacy-friendly analytics tool. Where a recipe links to a shop or a product, that shop’s own privacy policy applies once you leave this site.
How long we keep it
Subscriber addresses stay until you unsubscribe. Contact messages are kept for two years so we can follow up a conversation, then deleted.
Your rights
Write to [email protected] and we will export, correct or delete your data. If you are in the EU or UK you also have the right to complain to your local data protection authority.
Changes
If this policy changes materially we will note the new date at the top of the page.
